    You use Arch, btw. You appeared to state if someone said Arch install materials were estrogen that would be a slur.

    What did I miss? I must have missed something.

    I love Debian and I have no problem with anyone transitioning to be whatever they like. Your statement seemed to differ.s

    edit: lol you asked and I explained myself. Now explain yourself.

      Alright, you somehow got a third, even further off interpretation that I hadn’t even begun to conceive of. Frankly, it knocked my understanding of my own joke out of my head, like seeing the second form of an eye trick illusion.

      Anyway, arch users are often jokingly considered insufferable and holier than thou, particularly when they append their Linux pedigree to their everything, substituting their OS for a personality. Arch users often separate themselves, due to their OS being far more customizable, leading to an abundance of arch communities. Now, given that context, my joke boiled down to an arch user refusing to use that slang term because it would denigrate trans people for them to be associated with a “subpar” OS.

      Does that still read bigoted?
